A very comfortable and cosy cottage, well equipped and in a beautiful location.

A very comfortable and cosy cottage, well equipped and in a beautiful location. We particularly enjoyed using the log burning fire. Magnificent views over fields and hills in a beautiful landscape, the cottage is in an extremely peaceful and relaxing place. It is close to all amenities, shops, restaurants, garage only a few miles away and well placed to explore many tourist attractions, castles, Deeside and Aberdeen city.

We had a wonderful stay at Guise Cottage as a family of 3.

We had a wonderful stay at Guise Cottage as a family of 3. The cottage is in a beautiful location overlooking the farm and fields. It is very peaceful and the sunsets and sunrises were amazing! We loved sitting in the sunroom watching the skies and the animals and then retiring to the cosy living room with wood burner. The cottage was quickly heated and we really found it was a home from home. Beds were super comfy and the shower was excellent. Kitchen was very well equipped and we had all we needed. Liz is a fantastic host and it was great to have her on site in case we needed anything. Our son loved watched the sheep, cows, donkey and pony. We stayed here to be close to family in Alford. Highly recommend the Forbes Arms - we had a lovely meal. It’s such a beautiful area and Craigievar Castle is very nearby. We visited Castle Fraser also and did a small Speyside Distillery tour. Mither Tap is nearby for the hill walkers. just too much to fit in during a week’s stay! The weather definitely made it for us as well. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a lovely stay and keep up the fantastic work on the beautiful farm. We were in awe watching all you do.
